Summary

Hemostasis will be achieved during Pediatric Tonsillectomy/Adenoidectomy with the use of QuickClot.

Detailed description

The Quickclot dressing contains Kaolin, a natural mineral that promotes the body's clotting process. This dressing will be applied for one minute to the area where the tonsils/adenoids were. The investigators are hoping to develop a standard of practice where Quickclot is a key addition for tonsillectomy surgery.
